Much like the previous ‘highly anticipated’ big budget and big banner movies in Bollywood, Zero faltered at the box office and failed to impress critics and audiences alike.
The Shah Rukh Khan and Anushka Sharma starrer, which boasted of an “unusual” love story, between a quirky and high-aiming dwarf (Khan) and a famous movie star (Katrina Kaif) fell flat at the box office after a steady opening – perhaps due to the negative word of mouth.
Opening with a domestic total of 20 crores, the movie saw a steep decline and collected only 16 crores on its second day. Gaining some momentum on Sunday, the movie managed to rake in nearly 20.71 crores, but according to trade analyst, Taran Adarsh, it still ‘under-performed’ with turnaround or ‘big jump.’
With a failure to leave a mark with critics as well as the BO numbers, Twitter pulled some sharp-tongued memes and jokes – taking a dig at the poor outcome of another ‘biggie’ from B-town.
Here is how some folks have reacted online:
